Down at the Junkyard we continue converting Shamus's stacks of salvaged timber into furniture and other rustic constructions. One job that might come up soon is a tree house for a family in Forest Lodge, which is pretty exciting.
Meanwhile I'm making this feature piece for a tabletop out of offcuts, maybe a dining table
Here it is after the first go with sawdust and glue filler so finally it doesn't have lots of holes to see through
"burst" feature
With added feet
Only a few big holes left to fill. It's a bit of an experiment, and the pattern is totally abstract, but next time I might do a landscape, the wood lends itself to perspective illusion
Clamps and Glue
A feature gouge in one of the mostly oregon benchtops that Shamus has got Douglas making
A radiating feature from a bunch of wooden triangles
Clamped!
Some of Shamus and Douglas's large benchtops looking for a home (contact me if you want one, or a piece to order - I'll post our Gumtree link soon)
That's me cutting little triangles from a short length of red gum.
Stripes!
